For the LORD, the God of Israel, says that he hates putting away:
For one covers violence with his garment,
says the LORD of hosts:
therefore take heed to your spirit, that you deal not treacherously.

Richard Challoner
AD 1781
Iniquity shall cover his garment: Viz., of every man that putteth away his wife without just cause; notwithstanding that God permitted it in the law, to prevent the evil of murder.
